Anyone who’s a Jack Johnson fan will appreciate this post, because his song, “Banana Pancakes” is exactly what inspired us to make these pancakes once upon a time. The original recipe didn’t include walnuts though, but we found that they add a certain delightful crunchiness, and the fruit topping is far better than syrup could ever hope to be!

(Note: The Berries and Cherries topping comes from Cherry Republic, but we also made these with blackberry jam and fresh sliced strawberries on top, which were equally amazing!)

To make delicious pancakes, you have to start with delicious ingredients.

Mix crushed walnuts and all-spice into the pancake batter

Rather than mixing mushed bananas straight into the batter, fry up banana slices in coconut oil, then sprinkle the slices with cinnamon or all-spice. Flip em!

Pour the pancake batter on the sizzling banana slices and cook as you normally would. Feel free to throw in a few blueberries too!

Then top the pancakes with "Berries & Cherries Fruit Topping" from Cherry Republic! All photos snapped with an iPhone 4

Pork Chops – Poke with fork a lot, olive oil, salt and pepper. When 50% done, add rosemary. Cook until tender not chewy (best to use a thermometer). Serve with Berries and Cherries Topping from Cherry Republic over fresh arugula.

Red Sauce – Blanch tomatoes, dice, add tomatoes and juice to sauteed garlic, simmer and reduce. Reduce until it has a paste like consistency (sauce it), add pepper and serve over squash.
